Hotels near Harbor Mall, Lihue

The resort was perfect in Oct. Not crowded but all activities were easily accessible-pool, beach, nature walks! The beach is calm and sandy perfect for my 2 year old niece to enjoy! There are plenty of restaurants and shopping with in walking distance. Lots of free or inexpensive activities offered on site. Would definitely return ! Construction was happening while we were here , only reason I rated it very good 4/5 stars !!

FYI This hotel is near the airport. That means it is far from almost all attractions. Expect to drive 20minutes, to over an hour, to get anywhere, even adjacent towns. The hotel is situated so that sunrise and sunset are not visible. The hotel is on a bay, so the water is sheltered. This calmer water might be good for young children. I did see people surfing, so maybe the tide or distance from the shore affects the waves. Pros The entry drive into the hotel complex is beautiful. Landscaping is beautiful. Self park is close to the entrance. But the self park costs $10/day and is crowded. Slots are small and many people are double parked, because the lot is not designed correctly. I got a “ticket” for double parking. So parking is more a ‘con’ than a ‘pro.’ Rooms seem to have been remodeled and are clean. The rooms are “industry standard” size, so they are not large. The staff is friendly if not always helpful. The spa is good and not crowded. The gym is good. Large flat pool that would appeal to children. A small kiddie pool with slide. Several hot tubs. Cons Infrequent room service. We had service twice over seven nights. There was also a towel refresh. This automatically reduces the review by a star. I’m not interested in how the hotel rationalizes this poor service. This is a beach hotel, sand sneaks onto the floor. Some add on charges are ridiculous. While we were here, we noticed that the in-room charge for a liter of Evian water went from $7 to $9. Let me repeat, the price of water increased two dollars for no reason in front of our eyes! Another star off. Why don’t they give us water, anyway? The bathroom is substandard. One sink. Shower in tub. No glasses (!?). No amenities like Qtips. WiFi doesn’t work well. The restaurant situation is not good. There is construction going on but the workarounds are poor. As far as I can tell, the only place to get a drink during the day is the pool bar, or the unappealing pool restaurant. All food and lounges close at 9pm (… not positive about this, maybe there is some hidden bar). The place is large and not really romantic. There are some closed shop fronts, suggesting that there might have been more shopping options in the past. So, I recommend staying elsewhere in Kauai.

I hate to give a poor review, but I want to make people enough information to decide for themselves. Pros: The location was great (about a 5 minute drive from the airport and a 5-10 minute walk to a number of restaurants and an ABC store). The 2 bedroom condo was spacious and had 2 full baths and 2 lanais. The stencils on the walls were charming. Cons: If you are a neat freak you might want to look elsewhere. The tile floors were not very clean. I tried to wipe down the floors in the main living area, but we still ended up cleaning our feet off before putting our shoes on to leave. The bathrooms were reasonable as to cleanliness. Another thing to consider is that our unit didn't have central air. There were 3 window units (1 in each bedroom and another in the living area). They operate on a timer and they are loud so it makes it a little hard to fall asleep.

The service is impeccable, the environment is beautiful, and the facilities are complete. The hotel is very close to the airport and only arrives at the hotel after the golf course. The hotel lawn is maintained daily, there is a self-service barbecue grill, the terrace is large, and the view from the terrace is charming. Place, the view is very charming, like a beautiful landscape painting, it is worth staying again

Overall not bad, but not for 177,000 ($1,777) for 4 nights, and the rooms are still dirty, cleaning is done on the second reminder. Tomorrow is delicious, but I beg you to add eggs or sausages and fish. Only carbohydrates

We went here twice for breakfasts during our stay in Kauai........can't beat the food, service or prices! Both times we were seated immediately even though the restaurant was very busy. My French Toast and Sausage was good (ordered it twice!).....they were out of the sweet bread that was supposed to be the main ingredient, but all was fine with the usual white bread. My spouse tried their pancakes and omelets........both with Spam as his side dish..and he enjoyed both. The servers use carts to set the tables/deliver food/clean tables........VERY quick & efficient! Definitely a very popular spot for locals!!!!!!!

This is a good resort if you can get a reasonable rate, which we did. If you book directly through the resort the prices seem high for the value. One of the jacuzzis did not work and the other one was quite crowded during our stay. The location was good and reaching all areas of the island was easy and convenient. The lounge had good service, drinks, food and entertainment nightly which was a good plus. We found the staff to be very helpful and polite. I would think this resort would be good for families. The rooms are a little dated but it appears that upgrades are being made. The rooms really need a sheer curtain on the sliding door to the lanai. We found the big wooden plantation doors that you slide close to be bothersome and clumsy. We would stay here again due to the great staff and welcoming service we received.
